Hi,

I already tried this solution.

I added:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/enum34.git/commit/?id=ed2496b8582d939a8ad48769a8b513e916d9df5a

which should handle deps to be automatically added by pybuild, which works.

But when some packages requires enum-compat in setup.py:
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/python-eventlet.git/tree/setup.py#n16

But even with this change you need to patch upstream code, see:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=881989

Without this patch, setuptools install deps fails (tries to download it
from pypi). Build of eventlet doesn't fail, because it doesn't downloads
requirements from pypi. But other packages which depends on eventlet fails.

The proposed name also isn't really compatible with Debian Python
> policies: you can't `import enum_compat` after installing it.

you can't, but enum-compat will be even more confusing. Because
python-enum-compat will contain
'/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/enum_compat-0.0.2.egg-info i think
python-enum-compat is correct.
